Debbera Lentils cook fairly quickly. You should rinse them under cold, running water. Pick out any of the icky looking ones. Then put the lentils in a pot, pour in about 5-6 cups of water. Bring it to a boil, over medium high heat, then reduce the heat to medium low...

Debbera If your husband is anything like mine.. and it seems as though they're near twins, from your description.. there's only one excuse. They were born with the dehabilitating disease known as "Idontwannaitis". It's not that they CAN'T, it's not that they don't...

Debbera Sometimes, during the "dating process", people are not themselves. They're nicer, they're more polite, they're more thoughtful.. you get the idea. However, if you're in the "dating process" long enough, you'll see their "true colors". I'm thinking that your...

Debbera I think it's fantastic that you have such a gifted child! You must be very proud. I have three children (9yo, 4yo and 2yo). I homeschool them because I could not find a suitable school (public or private) to suit their individual needs. When looking for a...

Debbera For my husband and I, it's the little things that matter. Jewelry is nice, but I'd prefer a hug and a kiss and a heartfelt "I love you." Going out to a romantic dinner is nice, but having him help me in the kitchen is better. We talk about everything, it...

Debbera Weight gain and pregnancy comes hand in hand. It's super easy to put on the weight and not so easy to get it off. However, you don't have to put on a bunch of weight just because you get pregnant. If you take prenatal vitamins and eat two extra servings of...
